cost effective thin cryanolate applicator
Evening all,
I currently use Microbrush Fine applicators, which are good, but they cost 1.50 for 10 from Little Cars, so not the cheapest solution.
I have tried toothpicks, but they dont work with the thins stuff.
Any suggestions appreciated.
cheers

Harry look in John's shop under Albion something or other. That has a good system.

First apologies Graham. Read Harrysdad & assumed.
Second if you buy the applicator you can trim off dried glue with a sharp knife but be careful otherwise you will shed one of the prongs which I did. But kept the single prong one which has been very handy for minute glueing. Put the prongs firmly on a hard surface then trim.

Mine snapped too but it was easy to replace with a decent, cut down needle

Hmm interesting. Sounds daft, but do you just fill it with CA and go for it. Does the CA not cure in it? TBH I have looked at them but am rather dubious about putting CA in only to find the next time I need it its locked rock hard.

Think there may be a bit of confusion.
There is the Albion Alloys C/A applicator 805. This is a neat metal tool with a very very small fork at the end. Used for placing super glue in the right spot. This is the one I have refered to in scraping off dried c/a. This is rather like using a toothpick except that it has two prongs & the glue sits in between the two prongs & far superior to a toothpick. Also used it for applying a small amount of accelerator to the correct spot
There is also the Touch & Flow system 711. Principally for Albion Alloys Plastiweld glue rather like Tamiya thin cement ie does the same thing although it says you can use it for c/a glue. Used it for Plastiweld & this & it is excellent. But unless you are using real heck of a lot of superglue I would resort to the above 805 applicator.

Yes, that's the one I've got too
